Multiple Meaning Words
Multiple Meaning WordsHomonyms, or multiple-meaning words, are words that have the same spelling and usually sound alike, but have different meanings (e.g. dog bark, tree bark).
The meaning of the word depends on the context or situation. You can look at context clues to figure out which version of the word you have in your sentence. One way you can do that is by looking to see if the word is a noun or a verb.
For example: Trip. Trip can be a vacation, which is a noun, or it can mean to fall over something, which is a verb. Let’s look at our sentences. “She took a trip to Colorado.” “If you aren’t careful, you might trip over that step.” In this sentence, “She took a trip to Colorado,” she’s taking a vacation, so you know this is a noun.
Finding out if it’s a noun or a verb can help you figure out which version of the word you’re using in that sentence.
